PO Output for Communication


The easiest way is to create a custom RTF, register it in XML publisher and attach it to the concurrent PO OUTPUT FOR COMMUNICATION.

  • In Purchasing > Setup > Organizations > Purchasing Options> tab Control > set "PO Output Format" = PDF
  • In Purchasing > Setup > Purchasing > Document Types > find Document Type "Purchase Order - Standard".Then find the Document Type Layout 'Standard Purchase Order Stylesheet' which is actually Template Defination. 
  • Go to XML publisher and find the data defination 'Standard Purchase Order Data Source'(PO_STANDARD_PO). 
  • Define your own template definition using the data definition and attach the custom template file.
  • Change the new template name in the document type.


To generate the XMl Tag , do the following
Choose the `PO Output for Communication' as report name. 
In the parameter section please enter the following parameters and submit the request. 
Print Selection = All 
Buyer name, Employee Number: Choose the buyer name (who created the PO) 
Purchase Order Numbers From = PO Num 
Purchase Order Numbers To = PO Num 
Test = Debug (Running with Test flag as 'Debug' will only produce XML output if 
the PDF had not been generated successfully previously.) 
Leave all other parameters blank. 
Note: The document should be in status Incomplete otherwise it won't generate the readable XML.
The report will be completed with error status, but log file of the request 
will show the XML generated by this program run.
